Its trivial to find all the D700's.  In APRSdos, just
go to the DIGIPATH page and enter JUST-APK1
and all the D700's will be listed...  Don't know how
to do these kinds of selective displays in other software..  Bob

 Robbie,
    W9DF-15 is a rather high profile digi near West Lafayette, Indiana.
He 
uses Wide5-5 for some reason. Someone that hears him direct has a D700
set 
up as a Wide digi with it set up incorrectly. Anyhow, as his packets
bounce 
back and forth, this D700 decrements his SSID. Of course this is a new
call 
as far as the other digis or W9DF-15 see it. Then this new call get
sent 
out. I hear him directly most of the time and watch as his SSID's 
go -15, -14, -13, etc, often down to -10, blip, blip, blip, blip.
    It not just W9DF-15 that has problems. Most of the stations in
eastern 
and central Illinois and western and central Indiana get their calls
screwed 
up. When ever I check my Heard list I can delete at least 25 percent,
often 
a third, of the calls there as being wrong. This has been going on
since 
last Summer.
    I cannot run more than just Wide here or my SSID gets decremented.
Using 
Wide2-2 gets my call decremented. I see no reason to run any more than
2-2 
here but I can't even do that. Of course there were never any problems
with 
running Trace instead of Wide but I guess now we are to be getting rid
of 
Trace. D700s don't seem to screw up Trace.
    If there were just some way to contact all the D700 users and tell
them 
to fix their d%*$ digis.

Al, K9SI
